- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT: Under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, it is the intent of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 5 to award a sole source service contract to Blue Water Satellite, Inc. (BWS) in order to access and download data, which is gathered by BWS satellite imagery capabilities. BWS has the capability to provide captured satellite images utilizing spectral reflected light, processed by using Blue Water Satellite?s patented algorithms to detect mineral and organic particle pollutants. BWS measurements are highly accurate, verified by ground truthing, and have resolution varying from 5 measurements per acre to 1,000 measurements per acre. This high density of data will aid the Government in understanding conditions that exist in the entire land or water area rather than having to rely on a small number of single point samples, a method which is considered less accurate and more costly. The North American Industry Classification (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541360, with a size standard of $15.0 million. THIS IS NOT A FORMAL SOLICITATION. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This synopsis is not considered a Request for Quotation or Proposal. No solicitation document is available, and telephone requests for a copy of the solicitation will not be honored. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Individual responses shall be limited to five (5) double sided 8 ? by 11 inch pages. All responses received within 5 days will be considered. If no affirmative written response is received, the service contract will be awarded without further notice. Detailed capabilities of interested vendors must be submitted Mary Rankin at rankin.mary@epa.gov no later than 2:00 PM (CST) on February 23, 2015.
